Preußens Hofmusik II

For two decades, Prussia's Hofmusik, the chamber orchestra series of the Staatskapelle Berlin, has focused on music from the 17th and 18th centuries, particularly composers and works associated with the history of the Staatsoper and Staatskapelle. In its anniversary season, the ensemble spotlights Johann Sebastian Bach, revered by King Frederick II of Prussia, whose sons were active in Berlin, and whose influential renaissance originated there. The program features inspired secular and sacred cantatas by Bach, along with renowned instrumental music.

Abon­ne­ment­kon­zert II

Musik der Hoch- und Spätromantik, dazu ein Werk der Gegenwart. Christian Thielemann spannt in seinem ersten Konzert als neuer Generalmusikdirektor den Bogen von Mendelssohn über Schönberg bis zu dem jungen kanadischen Komponisten Samy Moussa, dessen farbenreiches Orchesterstück Elysium unter seiner Leitung 2021 in der Sagrada Familia in Barcelona zur Uraufführung gebracht worden ist. Igor Levit ist der Solist von Mendelssohns 1837 komponiertem 2. Klavierkonzert mit seinen ernsten wie lyrischen Tönen, während Schönbergs zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts nach dem Drama von Maurice Maeterlinck entstandene, opulent besetzte Tondichtung Pelleas und Melisande seine Verwurzelung in der spätromantischen Klang- und Ausdruckswelt demonstriert.

Kam­mer­kon­zert II

For more than six decades, the chamber concerts by musicians from the Staatskapelle have been a constant feature of the Staatsoper programme. This season, ensembles have come together to select music from different periods, styles and cultures under the theme of ‘playing together’. On eleven dates in the Apollosaal, which with its special atmosphere is an ideal venue for chamber music and communicative interaction between players and listeners, works from the Baroque to the present day will be performed in constellations that are both exciting and harmonious, in which tangible contrasts play just as important a role as a common resonance and the balancing of opposites.

Mu­se­ums­kon­zert II

Since 2010, ensembles from the Staatskapelle have been playing at the Bode Museum, a jewel in Berlin's museum landscape. Matinee concerts lasting just over an hour in the Gobelin Hall with music from past centuries can easily lead into further hours in the museum - for example, during an exhibition visit or a culinary finale in the stylish museum café.
